+What is the SMBus? And the I2C bus?
     The SMBus is the "System Management Bus".  More specifically, it 
 is a  2-wire, low-speed serial communication bus used for basic health
-monitoring and hardware management.  It is a specific implementation of
-the more general I2C (pronunciation: I-squared-C) bus.  In fact, both
+monitoring and hardware management. It is a specific implementation of
+the more general I2C (pronunciation: I-squared-C) bus. In fact, both
 I2C devices and SMBus devices may be connected to the same (I2C) bus.
     The SMBus (or I2C bus) starts at the host controller, used for
-starting transactions on the SMBus.  From the host interface, the
-devices communicated with are the 'slave' devices.  Each slave device

+devices communicated with are the 'slave' devices. Each slave device
 has a unique 7-bit address in which the host must refer to it with. 
     For each supported SMBus host, there is a separate kernel module
 which implements the communication protocol with the host. Some SMBus
 hosts really operate on the SMBus level; these hosts can not cope with
 pure I2C devices. Other hosts are in fact I2C hosts: in this case, we

 hosts can also talk to pure I2C devices.
